As Director of Photography, I was involved from the earliest stages of pre-production on this commercial project for Funnellab, directed by MG.
We enlisted the talents of the renowned actor Nick Wilder—well-known for his versatile performances—and focused on creating a fast-paced visual narrative for an online VSL (Video Sales Letter). A RED Helium, mounted on a gimbal, allowed us to capture unique angles and dynamic shots, while large frames served as our main light sources, delivering a polished commercial look with a subtle cinematic edge. Despite operating with a small yet dedicated crew, we covered every aspect of production in a single day, ensuring that both style and efficiency were at the forefront of our creative process.
